Description
The story behind this fragrance
First Parfum opens with bright peach and raspberry warmed by bergamot and aldehydes' subtle shimmer, before a voluptuous heart of Turkish rose and tuberose blooms into creamy jasmine and orchid. Carnation and hyacinth add spice and green snap. As it settles, amber and tonka bean emerge with honeyed warmth, grounded by vetiver and sandalwood's woody pull, while musk and civet lend a soft animalic depth that keeps the fragrance intimate against skin.
